Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a distance sensor with a method and device that aid the compensation of mounting tolerances of a distance sensor, where compensation is provided with little effort, quickly and reliably. This is achieved by having the distance sensor emit its rays at an aperture angle (a) of 0.1° to 10° and pick up data while the vehicle is moving straight forward, and determining an angle error by comparing the data picked up during a change of channels.
